Mayweather v Pac - fight off!

This put a lot of question marks over Pacman imo.

 

Hmm... I know it don't look good for Manny, but I don't believe he is taking performance enhancing drugs. Nobody has shown me evidence of it and if I was an athlete of his stature, I would be pissed if I worked hard to get where I got and people laid that **** on me too.

I don't think Floyd is avoiding the fight though either. There's no proof of that really so I wont use a double standard and say he's a coward based on my gut instinct (which never leaned toward that for this fight anyway - I think he wants to fight Manny. Though it is quite the coincidence that he has gotten out of one of the few seriously challenging fights out there for him... again).

That said... THIS IS A ****ING DISGRACE! The world of boxing should be ashamed of itself for not being able to manage this fight and make it happen. There is some serious **** wrong with the sport for us not to be able to make the biggest fight, possibly in history happen.

The great thing about this fight is it's timing. Both fighters at the same weight. Both in their primes still. Both splitting fans 50/50 and both recognised by casual fans. Both at a time when boxing needs fights like this...

This is so jading it's not funny. **** **** ****

 

boxing couldnt make mundine fight at 154 either.....but he made the weight a week before......rrrriiiiggghhhhtttt.......

 

I reckon it will still happen, probably nearing the end of the year. I think all these complications are genuine, but to sort them out and then to promote the biggest fight of the decade in 3 months is just not reasonable. **** will get sorted out over the next 4 or so months, meanwhile the hype will grow, pac and money will both win their fights in the interim (pac v foreman, money v paulie) and then by september everything (negotiations, promo, etc) would have taken place properly. Too much money at stake for it not too happen.

Yeah I think it will happen later too. I can't wait to hear the reason it's not going on though. Will the gag order ever be lifted on the negotiations this past 2 days or does this entire forum have to sit here and argue over things it don't know as fact like usual??

 

Void does not want to fight Pac and never has.

Roach tried to get him to fight Pac right after Pac knocked Hatton out, but Void refused. Did anyone hear what Void, Sr. said after Pac beat Cotto?! Now wonder Void is so afraid.

 

drop them both out of p4p

**** them both.
disgrace to the sport.

 

Mundine and Money M are tarred with the same brush.

Mediator , retired Federal judge Daniel Weinstein called Arum and told him,

" The fight's off. Mayweather never wanted it. Manny wanted the fight.
He was agreeable to terms "

 

Sorry forgot to add this was reported in The L.A. Times 7 / 1 / 10

 

ESPN reporting that Arum says " Pacquaio could be fighting Yuri Foreman in
Las Vegas on March 13th or 20 th for the WBA jnr middle title.

 

**** floyd... he is a ***** and making insane demands in order to have the fight called off

sounds like a certain Aussie boxer!

 

Whether it's true or not.. during mediation apparently Pacs team reduced the 30 day testing window to 24 but Floyd didn't budge on the random testing thing.

Floyd v Malignaggi, Pac v Foreman.

Food for thought - If Floyd is the *** in all this, how come Pac can go as high as 154 for Foreman but wouldn't go a stroke over 145 for Cotto...AND made Cotto put his belt on the line after he signed the contract.

Also...lets not forget that Floyd has conceded a few things in negotiations to get this fight happening. He could have enforced Nevada rules of 10 oz gloves for fights 147 and above. He didn't...Pac can wear 8 oz gloves. And the big one...when Floyd demanded random drug testing, Pac countered immediately with an absurd $10 million penalty for every tick Floyd weighs over 147. Floyd accepted it straight away. That point has hardly been reported.

If Pac gives a tea spoon of blood and five minutes of his time, just like Floyd would be doing...the fight is ON brothers and sisters.

 

Sounds like a good reason for any weary local fighter to stay away from the jM/W division.

 

Mayweather would flog Pac anyway :good

He will just take him apat from the outside.
